This chocolate haven, known for its exquisite choices that align with Japan's climate, presents a delightful way to cool off and indulge in the flavors of summer.
Seasonal Chocolate Melon Dessert
At the heart of this summer's offerings is the innovative "Chocolat Melon," a luxurious dessert that showcases the refreshing taste of melon in multiple interpretations. This artistic dessert features a chocolate cup shaped like a melon, filled with a delightful array of melon-infused components—sauces, creams, sorbets, and granites—while fresh melon pieces encircle the cup. A touch of lime and lemon zest enhances the melon’s natural flavor, creating a vivid and refreshing treat. This decadent dessert is priced at ¥2,090 (tax included).
Elegant Afternoon Tea Set
In addition to the chocolaty delights, Café Bel Amer presents a luxurious “Early Summer Afternoon Tea Set,” embodying a true taste of the season. The top tier features the star of the show, the Chocolat Melon. The middle tier boasts an assortment of treats, including a chocolate noir, peach gateau, elderflower tart, mango verrine, and bonbon chocolates. Finally, the bottom tier is filled with an assortment of sandwiches and mini quiches, perfect to complement with a choice of coffee or tea. This delightful experience is available for two at ¥7,480 (tax included) or for one at ¥3,740 (tax included). Reservations are encouraged due to the popularity of this unique offering.
Special Summer Kakigori
Moreover, summer wouldn't be complete without some icy treats. Café Bel Amer is proud to introduce two special kakigori (Japanese shaved ice) options.
Berry Fromage Kakigori
The "Berry Fromage" kakigori brings together four types of berries with a sumptuous cream cheese base. This dessert delights with a vibrant balance of sweet and tart flavors, enhanced by a layer of vanilla ice cream and a pleasant cassis sauce hidden within the fluffy ice. Topped with a delicate meringue of cassis, it provides a luxurious experience for anyone looking to indulge in summer's bounty at ¥1,980 (tax included).
Chocolat Earl Grey Kakigori
Alternatively, for those who seek a unique twist, the "Chocolat Earl Grey" kakigori stands out as a perfect summer treat. Melding the rich aroma of Earl Grey tea with chocolate creates a refreshing yet indulgent experience. As you dig into this dessert, you will encounter tangy elderflower jelly and a sophisticated bergamot sauce that balances the chocolate's richness. Also priced at ¥1,980 (tax included), this dish emphasizes the café's commitment to quality chocolate craftsmanship while surprisingly finish light and zesty.
